It had been two years since our last visit to Martha’s Vineyard and many things had changed. Places that we had frequented over our many annual visits had closed.
And I thought about the last time we had been to those places.
It is humbling that you really don’t know the last time you will be somewhere. Although a frequent parting remark is “See you next time”, it is a good faith hope.
As I reflected upon the places that were no longer open and our last time there, the importance of cherishing every moment became clearer to me.
